NYT is a joke. Has been, still is. Nobody takes them seriously (well, nobody with an IQ).

nobody cares. POTUS should try to find out who it is and kick their asses to the curb.
However, one more deep state lawyer in the government who hates Trump.

First, realizing we were running out of pages in our politics of personal destruction playbook, someone said “that Woodward and Bernstein thing worked didn’t it?”

So we talked about we brought them in and talked about a phony book and phony reporting when Bernstein said “the reason we were so successful was the Deep Throat play.”

That’s where the original idea came from.

After that, we...

The President is the one who has given this traction now. Seems like a huge overreaction to me, even if true. The op- ed does state Cabinet officials discussed the 25th Amendment and that makes the piece suspect as it all so familiar in tone. I find it bizarre this far into his Presidency he still reacts to Fake News outlets his voters could give a rats arse about..Je legitimized this drivel.

They keep punching and they can't figure out why Trump is still standing.

That would make a nice meme.

He did, unfortunately pay it too much attention.

He needs to understand these people are trying to get a reaction and make him look paranoid.
He should have waited and quietly did some research before tweeting about it.

Don’t give things life.

No one

I hope Trump doesn’t let the Slimes divert his attention from MAGA.

Foghorn Leghorn:

Lookit here son, I say son, did ya see that hawk after those hens? He scared ‘em! That Rhode Island Red turned white. Then blue. Rhode Island. Red, white, and blue. That’s a joke, son. A flag waver. You’re built too low. The fast ones go over your head. Ya got a hole in your glove. I keep pitchin’ ‘em and you keep missin’ ‘em. Ya gotta keep your eye on the ball. Eye. Ball. I almost had a gag, son. Joke, that is.
